ECDA Start Small Dream Big
The ‘Start Small Dream Big’ (SSDB) movement was initiated by the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) in 2015 to encourage preschools to create platforms for children to give back to the community. It was first launched as part of SG50 and the 15th anniversary of President’s Challenge, as an annual series of fund-raising and volunteer activities.
The theme of SSDB 2021 is “Stay Connected, Make A Difference”, in line with the 2021 theme of President’s Challenge “Building a Digitally Inclusive Society” – on supporting the digital inclusion of vulnerable groups, such as the elderly. This year’s projects also showcase how children can maintain social connections with the community and do good, digitally.
